A visual overview of business ideas and management

Business concepts here are presented as an illustrated overview, with charts, timelines, diagrams, and summaries alongside explanations of management and commerce. The book ranges from business models and strategy to practical challenges associated with starting a company, including finding a market opportunity, securing finance, hiring, and building a brand. It also introduces ideas associated with thinkers such as Michael Porter, Meredith Belbin, and Malcolm Gladwell. The broad scope makes this a survey of key concepts rather than a guide focused on one business function or a single stage of company development.
